[Bug 670665] Re: firefox crashes on ubuntu 10.10 (amd 64)

[ishu161]

Same problem here. I thought maybe it was my RAM at first (the system is
P4,512 MB). It started out as minor inconvenience, slowing the system
down when multiple tabs are open and whatnot, but until today, it didn't
affect the flash content. Made up for it today though, as I spend
practically all day trying to figure out what was wrong. The only change
I've made before this thing got worse was change a media player plugin
(for Berkeley webcast btw) from Parole to VLC. Today, every time I tried
opening a youtube video, the whole system just froze. I made matters
worse by doing manual restart, which led to some fancy keyboard light
falshings(caps lock and scroll lock), which the guys at IRC told me was
kernel panic. Now, I'm certainly not a Linux expert yet, but I figured
this was bad. After a few other restarts, I got the system to work
again, but I've installed "xul-ext-flashblock" to block the flash
content for the time being.
